Las Vegas – The Ultimate Fighting Championship® returns to the Pearl at the Palms Casino Resort on Saturday, Dec. 3 just in time for Michael "The Count" Bisping and Jason "Mayhem" Miller to settle a feud that has been spilling over for months. The middleweights, who traded verbal barbs for months as coaches on season 14 of The Ultimate Fighter®, will meet in a long-awaited five-round main event in Las Vegas. Plus, the first-ever bantamweight and featherweight winners of The Ultimate Fighter® will be crowned.
UFC president Dana White announced several months ago that all future non-title main events would be five-round fights, but this won't actually be put into effect until November's UFC 138 with a main event between Chris Leben and Mark Munoz. Bisping vs. Miller will thus be the second five-round non-title fight.No other bouts have been announced for the Spike TV-televised card, but given the UFC's desire to bolster the ranks of their bantamweight and featherweight divisions, it's likely that the card will be comprised mostly of fights featuring cast members.
